Big Ben Strikes Again
Description
Big Ben Strikes Again is a traditional arcade platform game with puzzle solving elements. The main goal is to collect certain objects and give them to specific people in exchange for information.
The game takes place in the Houses of Parliament, where a journalist from the Chronicle desperately tries to piece together a big story. The player plays as Ben, the journalist, and to gather material for the big story he will have to bribe the right people with proper gifts in exchange for leaked information.
The game also includes a level editor which allows you to make changes to the game's 20 screens. Any new screens created this way could be saved and then reloaded at a later date.
